Paynes has a great location and is closest to town of the three marinas. Docking is tight but the staff is helpful. I have never been to a dock where the staff does not communicate by VHF. You pull close and shout over what your need. There is a reason others use VHF , it just makes communication easier.

Great dock hands. Wonderful experience

We just completed another great stay at Payne's. They do things a little differently here and that's one of the things that we like so much. Down to earth, friendly and accommodating. They want you to have a good time and are very responsive to any and all requests. The facilities are great. Everything you need is right there including an awesome shuttle service to get you into town. We are not "30+ year customers" like many of the folks we met but we will continue to stay at Payne's whenever we are in the area and highly recommend them to all of our friends.

Paynes has and continues to be our favorite marina. A great old school marina where Sands and his team know how to service their customers in a no bullshit environment. In a world where many marinas are being bought out by the “big guys” I hope the family continues to run this facility for years to come.

Panye's does not officially open until 6/14/24. Therefore their services were minimal (No food, no shopping, etc.)

Perfect. It’s everything we needed

Expensive for this time of year. Nothing open at Payne’s. Block Island was open. Lovely dinner at the Barn and breakfast this morning at Persephones.

We love Payne’s & this is the only marina I like to stay in when I visit BI!
by Kimberly D. - Verified user on Aug 28, 2023
Mahogany shoals is THE ONLY place to stay on BI. It's simply the best. Friendly, lively, fun, best music, great clean heads and showers and the marina staff is top notch. This was our last trip for the year, but we'll see you on Memorial Day!
